Switchboard
Original Switchboard Items table plus VBA -- not Switchboard Manager, not macros. Buttons are rows. Page 2 is another switchboard id. Not the heritage Access product Nifty Switchboard Builder.
Sample form
Opened from the switchboard Argument.
What this demo shows
A menu filled from tblSwitchboardItem -- Access table+VBA switchboard.
- Rows, not hardwired buttons -- ItemText, CommandID, Argument.
- Pages -- Command 1 goes to another SwitchboardID. More... opens page 2; Back returns.
- Open form -- Command 3 opens the Argument (sample form A or B).
- Not the wizard -- no Switchboard Manager, no macros.
Will this work when the data is in a database?
Yes. The same rows would live in tblSwitchboardItem. The host maps Argument to a form.
